I know that the service, food and pricing is fantastic so hopefully with the fans support we will be talking about being in the top 10 next year 😉 The equivalent of a trophy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell the truth as I see it maybe I should just say nowt, I am disillusioned with jkb but will always support Hearts even although I cannot agree with the way it has been run both on and off the park for a long time.
